kconfig: document Kconfig source file comments
I saw this type of Kconfig construct on LKML:
config SYMBOOL
#bool "prompt string"
default y
and wondered what it does. Then I wondered if '#' comments are
even documented. They aren't, so add a little doc for that.
Ah, good. kconfig says:
arch/x86/Kconfig:2942:warning: config symbol defined without type
